So I got mine in. This is what i have done so far. I have not clear coated these.
I'm very happy with the finish. It took me a while to do, about 3 hours all together. I have no vinyl experience though, so i was learning along the way. I also only have a hairdryer and not a heat gun.
It looks much better in person. The flash from the camera made it look less black than it actually is. To give you an idea, my interior is black but looks grey from these pictures.

Looks Good!! I wrapped my roof myself, as well as my radio surround and shifter surround. I also did my laptop \
I've got a roll sitting here so I'll end up doing more interior stuff over the winter.

I also want to do my roof and possibly hood, just to protect it if anything. My neighbor strongly suggested i didn't though. He said that if the vinyl is on there a while and you want to take it off, when taken off, the paint can have started to bubbling while the vinyl was on. I forgot what he called it, and I'm not sure how it works either. But he said after a while bubbles (idk if from the paint, clear coat, or something under all that) will come up and pop open. I'm guessing it leaves little craters in the paint / clear coat or something.
I'm not sure if this is the case with this 3M stuff. Has anyone had this on their car for a while (like over a year) and then taken it off? If so I'm curious to hear about how the finish, on whatever was under the di noc, was affected.
